Building Update - Feb 5

It feels as though we have turned a corner on the project. The upstairs is looking great. The offices and nursery are sheetrocked and have been given a first coat of primer paint. The sanctuary ceiling has sheetrock and lights and is now awaiting the final wood finishes. The more delicate features of the sanctuary such as the arch and new windows are progressing well. Much of the air conditioning has being put in place and they hope to have it functional before the weather turns toward summer...which could be tomorrow for all we know.

Downstairs in the basement, all the walls are in place, and most of the electrical lines have been installed. You get a sense for the proportions of the space. Our children and youth will love the ability to call the classrooms their own. In our future Great Hall, a stairwell has been added and the concrete floor over the old pool will be poured soon.

The big news this week is that the old entry to the building has been completely demolished. They are excavating the entire area to begin pouring the foundation for the new entry. If you drive by, you will be able to see this work steadily progressing.

This is an exciting time. Progress is happening very quickly. Before long, the building will really begin to feel like a church home. Please continue to be in prayer for the progress of the project.
